Chapter 144.3 Three Elementary School Teammates
"Professor Yang, I’ve brought all the people you wanted," said the middle-aged man with a smile.
Professor Yang chuckled and pointed to Liu Xing, saying, "Old Luo, this is our new intern doctor, Liu Xing. Liu Xing, this is our security team leader, Captain Luo. You can call him Old Luo. You two should get to know each other, as you’ll be colleagues from now on."New stories at novelbin(.)com
Liu Xing nodded and stood up, extending his hand. "Captain Luo, nice to meet you. I’m Liu Xing. As I’m new here, I’m not familiar with some of the rules at the Internet Addiction Treatment Center. If I make any mistakes, please bear with me and offer some guidance."
Captain Luo hastily extended his hand and shook Liu Xing’s, saying with a sincere face, "Great, great. I’m a rough guy, and I have the utmost respect for educated people like you. If you don’t mind, could you help me write a letter to my family sometime?"
Professor Yang added, "Captain Luo’s hometown is in Northeast China, and they don’t have a phone at home, so he sends a letter to his family every week."
Liu Xing saw this as an opportunity to curry favor with Captain Luo and smiled, saying, "Of course, Captain Luo. You can come to me anytime, and I’ll definitely help you with your letter."
Captain Luo’s face lit up, and he thanked Liu Xing before leaving Treatment Room 1.
After Captain Luo left, Liu Xing finally had a chance to observe the Internet-addicted teenagers. To be precise, he observed three players acting as Internet-addicted teenagers.
Liu Xing quickly discovered that these three players stood out from the others, as they were more spirited and would even sneak glances around the room when Professor Yang wasn’t paying attention.
In simple terms, the NPCs acting as Internet-addicted teenagers seemed to have lost their souls, sitting there with blank stares, unmoving. In contrast, the three players were lively and would even turn their heads to observe the treatment room when Professor Yang wasn’t looking.
Liu Xing was telling the truth to dispel Zhang Jingxu’s concerns.
"I see, so we owe you one. Our character cards’ attributes and skill values are really pathetic, basically impossible to escape on our own. Oh, I almost forgot to introduce myself - I’m Wu Wei, nice to meet you all." The boy who spoke earlier said.
As for the last player, a girl who looked around 10 years old, "Hi everyone, I’m Xue Jingliu, nice to cooperate with you all. But I have to say, this random character card is really a trap - suddenly becoming an elementary school student is quite uncomfortable."
Liu Xing glanced at the treatment area’s activity and said, "Alright, we’re not here to chat, so let’s get to the point. According to the information I’ve got, Professor Yang should have been hijacked by the Yis People, but I don’t know why - I feel like the Yis People didn’t completely take over Professor Yang, so Professor Yang’s behavior still seems normal to me."
"Whoa, so the boss this time is the Yis People? That makes sense, though - the Yis People’s exclusive weapon is the electric shock gun, perfect for cosplaying as Professor Yang." Wu Wei exclaimed.
Xue Jingliu touched her chin, looking puzzled, "This is weird. Logically, after the Yis People hijack someone, they should send the hijacked person’s consciousness back to their original body, and then the Yis People would have complete control over the body to research the world’s knowledge and culture. But Professor Yang is still running an internet addiction treatment center, so I think maybe something went wrong when the Yis People hijacked Professor Yang, and that’s why Professor Yang’s consciousness is still in his body?"
Liu Xing nodded in agreement with Xue Jingliu’s idea, as it was unlikely that the Yis People would travel through time just to help Chinese students with internet addiction.
"Anyway, the Electric Therapy Device Professor Yang is using should be made with Yis People technology. From the NPCs’ status earlier, we can infer that if you use the device, you’ll definitely get some negative status effects. You guys need to be mentally prepared, and when you’re getting the electric therapy, try to scream louder and look more miserable, so I have a reason to choose to help you leave the treatment center. After all, our roles are currently at odds with each other." Liu Xing said with some frustration.
